LG F1480TDS

The 8kg LG F1480TDS washing machine comes packed with everything you need to make getting through your weekly laundry pile positively effortless. It uses a Direct Drive motor to run the machine, which means the motor is attached directly to the drum, so there are less moving parts than a traditional motor.

It uses less energy to run as well as being incredibly durable and quiet, meaning you can even run it over night. It uses advanced TrueSteam™ technology to improve wash performance and reduce water consumption. It can even refresh your clothes with hygienic steam in just 20 minutes, lifting away odours and making ironing effortless. It comes with a well deserved A+++ energy rating... It would need to be solar powered to be any more efficient!

LG’s 6 Motion™ technology is definitely the brains behind the F1480TDS’s impressive performance! The 6 different drum motions allow this model to tailor each and every programme to care for a certain type of fabric and tackle a range of tough stains. The 6 motions include a standard tumble, used on a daily Cotton cycle or mixed load of jeans and t-shirts. The 2nd motion is a Rolling action which powers programmes like the Sports wash. It is a very silent movement which rolls your clothes below the water level, gently scrubbing away tough stains, whilst preventing any damage to the sensitive breathable fabrics. The 3rd motion is Filtration, used on the Cotton Eco cycle, it combines spinning and spray from the water shower to soak the laundry faster and more evenly; helping save water.

The Scrub motion is used for the Intensive 60 cycle. The wave shaped paddles create a figure of 8 action sequence and lift your clothes through the water, helping to dissolve powder detergent better and wash away dirt faster. The 5th motion is the Swing action, the heart of any delicate cycle; it softly cradles your favourite garments rocking them carefully from side to side beneath the water line. The 6th Stepping motion is the key to combating wrinkles. It rotates and then stops repeatedly, helping to prevent your clothes from becoming tangled and creased.

So if you are after a washing machine that can get though your weekly laundry pile without any fuss, whilst always providing fantastic results and protecting your clothes, then you need look no further, than LG’s advanced 6 Motion™ range.

Product Reviews

"Big Washer"

Pros: Value for money, Easy to use, Good build quality, Quiet, looks good, 10y motor warranty, large loads, economic

Cons: unproven reliability

"Great washer, does a very big load and the time delay works a treat if you are a economy 7 user. It works well at night as you can barely hear it spin even at its higher spin setting in placed in an open kitchen. There's always a choice to reduce the spin speed easily. Time will tell if it will be a reliable washer. A direct drive motor sounds the business, but will it replace belt driven machines that have been proven and have been around for decades? I guess I will find out! I chose the 8kg and even though I won't be loading it fully every time, I'd like to think I'm not stressing the motor and the parts so the machine will last longer. This makes sense in my head any way."

"Super efficient huge machine"

Pros: Value for money, Easy to use, Quiet, looks good, great big buttons

Cons: no obvious match to care instructions

"I bought this machine because of its efficiency rating, and its 8kg capacity means fewer washes.

It has loads of easy to use programmes and features but I wish it had an idiot's guide to translate care instructions to those programmes. It's quiet compared to most other machines but comparable to my Miele.

For the price it's well worth the money."
